ARAMIS RAMIREZ RUMORS

Finally, some news on the trade front as Aramis Ramirez has been sent to Pittsburgh in exchange for a minor league pitcher named Yhonathan Barrios (kids these days with their non-traditional name spellings). It’s hard to get excited about a Double-A level player who has yet to prove himself, but it’s better than nothing. Given the fact that Ramirez was not having a great year...

Aramis Ramirez is heading back where it started. The Milwaukee Brewers have dealt the third baseman to the Pittsburgh Pirates in exchange for minor league pitcher Yhonathan Barrios. 12 years ago to this day, Pittsburgh traded Ramirez (and Kenny Lofton!) to the Cubs for a steaming pile of garbage. Now, he’s back. BREAKING: The #Pirates have acquired INF Aramis Ramirez from the...

And to make matters worse they’ve now lost Daniel...

MILWAUKEE -- When it comes to his baseball future, Milwaukee Brewers third baseman Aramis Ramirez has always kept his cards close to the vest. But when meeting with a small group of reporters to discuss playing in his 2,000th-career game Sunday, Ramirez said he had decided to play beyond the 2014 season. "I'm going to go for 2,500 (games)," Ramirez said. "So we'll see what happens...

MILWAUKEE -- Aramis Ramirez has consistently produced offensively over his 17 years in the big leagues, so it should come as no surprise the Milwaukee Brewers third baseman is producing at the plate. The question coming into the season wasn't if Ramirez would hit when healthy, but yet if he would avoid the injuries that plagued him in 2013. Despite a hamstring injury costing him...

Aramis Ramirez delivered the type of momentum-shifting blow that usually catapults a team to a victory, but such was not the case for the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday night. In his first game back from the disabled list, Ramirez blasted a three-run home run in the seventh inning to tie the game at 4, but a rare slip up from the Brewers bullpen gave two of those runs right back...
